Bead Boards (POPULAR)
By far my most popular request
By far my most popular request is these bead boards! People always ask me how I get the correct lengths for their bracelets and… THIS is how! It's also a nice way to organize your beads without them spilling everywhere.
Favonuovy Bamboo Bead Boards 9 Bracelet Sizes
Bracelet-making only bead board. This is great if you're only making bracelets.

Cord & Bracelet-Making String
You can't go wrong with investing in a good cord!
This strong and stretchy cord is fantastic for bracelet making!
10 Colors 0.8mm Elastic String for Bracelets
Perfect for larger beads (8mm+). I like using the largest diameter possible for strength. For 6mm beads I usually go with .8mm (though sometimes it’s too thick)

Another fantastic option to string!
Glarks 12-Color Elastic Bracelet String Set
Clear is always a great option when starting out!

Crystal Beads
This is a collection of crystal beads I use and love. While I mostly buy mine locally, I’ve included some great finds here so you can easily access them no matter where you’re at in your jewelry-making process — whether hobby or business. It took me ...
While I don't typically order beads from Amazon, there are a select few that I do order from there. THESE are part of the select few that truly blew my mind, and I love working with them energetically.
96Pcs 8mm Blue Goldstone Round Beads Set
Whenever I shop crystal beads locally, If I can't find something my heart desires (either for a commission piece, my bracelet shop or for myself), I shop here; they have a fantastic selection.

I absolutely love working with Green Moss Agate, it's such a fantastic stone for grounding, opening up the heart space and channelling for yourself and others.

Natural Lapis Lazuli Beads Strands, Round, Faceted, 2mm, Hole: 0.5mm, about 197pcs/strand, 15.7 inch(40cm)

Another Favourite is Rose Quartz!

Garnet is one of the most beautiful beads/gemstones I think I've ever seen. Look at them! Like little pomegranate seeds.
4x6mm Dark Garnet Red Tiny Teardrop (50pcs) Czech Glass Drops Beads Dark Garnet Briolette Glass Drops Small Drop Dark Red pomegranate beads
Glue
Glue isn't an essential part of bracelet making, however, it can be the reason your bracelets feel more elevated!
I use Gorilla Glue to hold the bracelet in place by applying a small amount to the area where the string is tied. This helps keep your bracelet and beads secure.
Gorilla Super Glue Gel, Fast-Setting, 0.53oz
Organization
I can't express enough how much Organization can help streamline your bracelet-making process.
A sorting tray is a great way to stay organized!
